Hula Hut on Lake Austin

Opening in the early 90's Hula Hut has been Austin favorite during good weather with its twin bars that extend directly over the water. A boat dock seems to twist into the bar area itself, pouring a steady influx of wake boarders during the summer months. The combined ambiance of swim suited patrons and a "Palapa" bar triggers the sensation that you're actually on the beach in Mexico. And of course that leads to a consistently hip spot to catch a bite and drink during any sunny day.
